Famous quotes containing the words increase and/or lapham:

    It shows nobility to be willing to increase your debt to a man to whom you already owe much.
    Marcus Tullius Cicero (106–43 B.C.)

    A certain kind of rich man afflicted with the symptoms of moral dandyism sooner or later comes to the conclusion that it isn’t enough merely to make money. He feels obliged to hold views, to espouse causes and elect Presidents, to explain to a trembling world how and why the world went wrong. The spectacle is nearly always comic.
    —Lewis H. Lapham (b. 1935)
